Pilot Knob RV Resort is a solid option for RV travelers, especially those affiliated with Thousand Trails or Encore campgrounds. Overall, I’d give it 4 stars, with the only downside being its remote location. Aside from the Granite Museum and the overpriced gas station at the exit, there’s not much nearby. For most necessities, you’ll need to drive into Yuma, which also involves crossing a time zone.
On the positive side, the amenities at the campground are great and seem recently renovated. The restrooms, game room, and pool area are all clean and well-maintained, and the shuffleboard courts and bocce ball are fun additions. There always seem to be organized events on the calendar, which is nice if you’re into social activities, though we didn’t attend any ourselves.
The RV sites are spacious, especially compared to other Thousand Trails locations. This makes it a great spot for those who RV part-time or full-time and enjoy a bit more room to spread out.
The staff here is incredibly friendly and helpful, and package/mail handling is seamless, which is a bonus for longer stays. The sunsets are absolutely gorgeous, and the nearby Pilot Knob hiking trails and Sand Dunes offer excellent opportunities to explore the outdoors.
Lastly, we enjoyed the breakfast buffet at the nearby casino—it was delicious and convenient, though the casino itself wasn’t our favorite for gambling.
Yuma is about a 20 minute drive.
Traveler
We stayed just one night while traveling through. It's about 1/4 mile from a Walmart with a few other RV parks around it. The Staff was friendly and helpful. We were able to make a reservation over the phone. We had full hook-ups (both 30 & 50 amps were available). It's a small RV camp with spaces, a pool, and a building with bathrooms (very clean), showers (use quarters), and several washers and dryers that cost $1.25 & $1 respectively. Wifi was on slower side but sufficient to stream TV shows. We paid $45.
Legend
Quiet RV site with tons of cute baby bunnies running all around when the sun starts to go down.
Gravel roads and plenty of places to park your vehicles.
This is a senior community
Nice clean pool
Slab of cement with tables on each of them at each site Really good tables not wooden broken ones but really nice tables. Pull through sites with full hook ups they have daily weekly and monthly rates
Nice community center with lots of activities going on so check the calendar so you can enjoy the activities they have going on You’re nearby to a gas station and the store if you need anything other than that overall grade RV park with new management
ScoutSite was basically a grass field. 50 amp and water but mo sewer hookups. Bugs were terrible. Lots of long-term/ permanent guests. Nice host.
RangerI've stayed here more than once. My last stay was in October 2020. It's a Passport America RV park so because I'm a PA member I only pay $15/night. It's a typical desert RV park no real frills. The people/management are nice. It has a bathroom and laundry and full hookups. I go there every so often after being on the road a while or after camping on BLM land for a long time and need a shower and water to clean my trailer or wash things. The location is very convenient for walking to just about everywhere on Main Street in Quartzsite so if you don't want to unhitch your trailer you don't need to.
The location is busy (but the park is quiet except for the traffic noise on Main St. during the day.) They try to make it interesting with outdoor art that lights up at night. They have a low monthly rate $199/mo. for those who want to stay in Quartzsite during the winter but want full hookups and don't want to boon-dock on BLM land. I prefer dry camping on BLM but everyone needs a day or two with full hookups every so so often.
Guide
Incredible long-term price for electric (MUCH needed for a few days during unusually hot temps), hot showers (for free we found!), and the manager said we can have packages delivered (this is the MAIN REASON we came, as we travel much)!
Yes, we could hear the hum of the highway, but I’ve learned to block it out! Praise Yahweh!
Guide
No river views to speak of. A lot of long term full time residents. The general store comes in handy and sells liquor, beer and wine. The boat launch is kind of awkward.
Legend
From rv with full hooks ups, cabin rentals which are basic, beds and air with community shared showers and bathrooms. Mini houses to rent which we stayed in and they are perfect for a few couples and small Children. Nice pool only problem is it’s a little to warm with it being so hot. The hot tub, kid pool and pool were all the exact same temp, water front access to the river and boat launch bring a pop up because barely any shade if you plan to play on the shore Great place for sure! Covered rv parking for an additional fee as well as playground for children and dog run for your fur babies.
Traveler
Huge resort with spacious spots and full hook up’s. Mostly flat with paved roads everywhere you will take your rv/camper on your visit. Close and easy access to Colorado River for swimming, boating, seadoos and off-leash dog walking/playing. Exceptional clubhouse with a gym and enough room to stretch out, remote work, or to catch a game with fam and friends on their big flat screen tv. Firepit and golf cart rentals plus smores kits and doggie bags with a bandana, dog toy and treats are also available. Super pet and kid friendly with play systems and a 2000sqft dog park. The store could use more ‘store’ items but there is a family dollar directly across the street.
They also have tiny homes for rent and I think the longest rv spot is almost 72-80’ long.
Clean bathhouse and laundry facilities. Free WiFi. So much to mention and I know I’m missing something but I hope i helped.
Don’t forget to ask Lou if you can purchase the wakeboard in the office. And tell them you heard about the first flight discount for 20% off.
*The resort is really big. About a half mile long or more. If you have trouble doing long walks or walking in general then renting a golf cart is highly recommended.
Guide
I camped in La Posa South area which is one of several areas for long term camping on BLM land near Quartzsite, AZ. You can buy a permit to camp in any of the areas for the season which I believe starts in November and ends in April. They also offer permits for two week intervals if you are not planning on camping all season. It is dry camping although there is a dump station and water available along with a row of dumpsters in each area for trash. This place fills up in the winter but there are still plenty of areas to find a good camping spot. If you do camp farther out watch out for traffic from ATV's and four wheelers who don't seem to believe the speed limits apply to them.
LegendStayed for 2 nights. Quiet for a park this size. Lots of long term tenants. The wifi is awesome. Staff is friendly and helpful. Bathhouse is clean. Showers are lukewarm after the first 30 seconds, which is the only drawback other than the bathhouse and laundry are on the other side of the park from the short term area. I'd stay again. Closer to the Blythe Intaglio area. Lots of hiking there.
Guide
$22/night, full hook up, pool, spa, 1 family bathroom (clean) laundry, we went into Yuma for this. Daisy is a lovely front woman. Not luxurious but great location to explore Yuma.

Small… but cute and quaint. They have a smoothie, coffee and tea bar. propane fill up full hook ups dump station available Definitely call ahead of time to make a reservation to make sure that there is space available. all the sites are back in Laundry facility available also you can drop off clothes and have them dry cleaned as well for a cost obviously. They do have trailers available for rent at different rates overall patties got it going on in her cute little place. If you’re a Snowbird perfect place to stay in the trailer just bring your vehicle
TravelerEasy in and out off the 10 freeway, large rv friendly, river spots back up to a grassy area on the river, cabin and RV rentals available, laundry room, clean facilities and friendly staff. Right on the California/ AZ border, close to Blythe for groceries and restaurants. Great place for off road vehicles since you can drive to the desert trails in about 2 minutes and ride for hours. All sites are full hook up, streets are gravel, sites have a cement pad and the rest is gravel and can accommodate even the longest set ups.
Scout
We are in a site with full hook-ups. Campground wifi (with Winegard booster) is good. Everything about this campground is old and unkept. Wouldn’t touch the bathrooms, showers, or laundry facilities. We are parked underneath the huge gas pipeline that spans the Colorado River at this spot. Staff is nice and helpful.
LegendThis place is cracking!!! Cool vibes, nice people, spotless pool, grass everywhere, right on the river, full hook ups, they have a basketball court, arcade type thing for the kids and adults alike. Spotless and right on the water. I really appreciated the upkeep of this place. Makes being in the heat not so bad with all the lush grass and the river!!! This place was great for sure.
Nice bathrooms as well.
Huge boat and extra vehicle parking.
Rv and boat storage

Lots of older trailers and permanent older RVs. This is a trailer park with seasonal RV spaces and they offer overnighters and short term stays. Shorter term sites are gravel patches with no privacy. The seasonal rate is great, $1145 as of 12/20 for Oct 1-Apr 30. Store right outside the entrance.
LegendA big sandy parking lot of RV’s with both full hook-ups electric/water/sewer and dry camping options.
There are a couple of flush toilets (often no toilet paper though), $5 (passable) showers for anyone to use, and a large dumpster available near the main entrance.
The upside is that you can easily walk/bike to the Big Tent RV Show and just about anywhere in Quartzsite, the downside is that you can hear the incessant hum of Interstate 10. The managers are kind people but bring your patient hat!
Sunrises and sunsets are endless and jaw dropping! Easy access to town for food, gas, firewood, laundry, and just about anything an RVer or camper could need.

Ran down and outdated. Pull through sites, back in sites both with full hook ups. Dump station Tables at some spots but not all You can get a very low rate here so negotiate because they don’t have much business and you can get a good price. This is also a mobile home park and In the back they have storage and extra parking if needed. The hosts are very nice. No showers No bathrooms
GuideThe new managers were very nice and super accommodating. It is right on the main street in Quartzsite so if you’re wanting easy access to walk to places it’s the place to be if you’re looking for something quieter not so much. It has laundry facilities Wi-Fi and full hook ups with pull through and back in.
There’s also a self-guided tour of tons and tons of sculptures made out of used horseshoes it’s a mechanical zoo basically is what they call it.
Guide
This is the perfect spot if you are planning to stay in slab city. Either for short or long term it is nice to be able to show up to an established camp. Mojo is the coolest person. Super nice and knows how to run a good camp. Lots of interesting people to talk to, it’s a very community oriented camp so plan to make some friends while you are there! We sat by the fire morning and night with the crew there and got to hear some amazing stories. Bathrooms and a kitchen are available so no need to be fully contained. Please be respectful if you go. This place is awesome and the vibe is awesome. Please don’t disturb that! There are lots of local dogs running around. All the ones we met were super friendly but keep that in mind if you have a dog or are afraid of them.

A big dusty parking lot of RV’s with both full hook-ups electric/water/sewer and dry camping options. There are a couple of clean flush toilets and a large dumpster available near the main entrance. The managers are sweet and helpful people and have been in the area for years!
The upside is that you can easily walk/bike to the Big Tent RV Show and just about anywhere in downtown Quartzsite, the downside is that you can hear the incessant hum of Interstate 10 and during January show time, it is crowded. We stayed here during the duration of the Big Tent RV Show in 2019 (10 days), while working the Renogy solar booth and easily walked back and forth every day.
Sunrises and sunsets are endless and jaw dropping! Easy access to town for food, gas, firewood, laundry, and just about anything an RVer or camper could need.

GuideLa Posa BLM has several entrances and is massive. It makes reviews tough on this because it depends which area you are in. I’m am reviewing Tyson Wash and South.
I do not recommend Tyson Wash for large RVs. They are there, but there are areas where the ground is deceptively soft. We got our 38ft class a stuck and had to be towed out. It’s stunning and is very quiet there, but use extreme caution with heavy rigs.
After we were freed, we crossed over to South. South is the area where you can dump, get water, and empty trash. You MUST have a permit to use the stations. There are two permits; short and long term. Short is two weeks and $40. Long (LTVA) is Sept 15-Apr 15 and is $180.
Because South is access to the stations, it is very busy there. People park in groups and are quite close. If you like socializing and whatnot, the lower part of South is for you. The upper area is a dirt road access in but very quiet with enormous space between rigs. It is almost entirely big rigs who have tip outs and such…much more private area. Please do your best to respect the space up in that area. It’s literally the reason for being there.
This is probably one of the best Boondocking areas I’ve ever seen if you know what you want. Because of the stations, there are reasonable fees but I highly recommend it.
Traveler
Quiet, clean, remote little military family camp on Lake Martinez with concrete RV sites and full hook ups, 50 amp electric only, but they have a loaner 30 amp adapter if they can find it. Park models and cabins available for those who do not tent camp or RV. Various types of water craft available for rent and limited docking for your own boat.
Easy to get camp site reservations in Summer. Have not tried here in winter as the place fills up with military retirees/ snow birds.
Staff on the other hand is mentally lost at best. Seems like they don’t really know what’s what most of the time ( refer back to the 50/30 amp adaptor that they usually can’t find as their storage location is on the floor beside the desk). The store is adequately stocked with alcohol, USMC souvenirs, but very lacking the things campers need most often, ie toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap etc. they don’t even sell popcorn, how can one camp without popcorn.
Despite the “lost in space” staff and the “non” mercantile in a remote place, I give this place 4 stars as it is quiet, inexpensive and a great little spot away from the city.
Traveler
Awesome small RV park and Exceptional Military Museum. Owners are down to earth, and Gunny is a retired U.S. Marine who loves our Veterans. Highly recommended place to stay, and if your just passing through, Stop in a visit the museum, Displays change seasonally.
Guide
We stayed at the Scenic Road RV Park after the desert began to warm up and we needed AC. No frills park. The showers are decent as is the laundry room. Sites are level. They offered us the use of their dog wash room which was a nice bonus. Noise from 95 was a bit too much for us. Good overnight stop or If you’re coming in to town for the Quartzsite RV show.
Traveler
Stayed one night on this RV park. Large sites. Kitchen and laundry facilities. One toilet and shower. Very tidy and clean. Nice and helpful hosts.
